Quoted from PtownPin:so does that Richie a better designer than Elwin? Its just kind of a meaningless comparison...one is on his last legs in the business, and the other is just starting out, but has a lot of talent....
Yes it does and u could design an great pin with no legs at all.
Elwin could go to shit for all we know. The big thing here is why compare them when it comes down to personal preference and the fact that u really only as good as ur current pin. Theme matters, audio and clips matter not just layout and code. This has been going on for a long time, people say things like this particular designer with this particular coder and its 100% going to be great, opposite with others. The sad thing they actually believe that. If Eric's next game sucks I'm not gonna hold it against him and overlook future pins he designs, same goes with every single team working in pinball today. But a new band that u really like with 2 albums out that u really enjoy can't compare with Sabbath or Zeppelin, not yet.
